Subject: She defines herself by her associations with other people; John - by some mysterious concoction whose ingredients Helen hasn't yet figured out, but which consists mainly of her name. Having a best friend sets her apart from John, who has no friends at all. He has acquaintances: people he eats meals with, studies with, sleeps in the dormitory - but she knows that John's secrets and idle wishes have no ears to spill into. What confuses her is that John doesn't seem to mind."Aren't you lonely?" "Lonely? Why would I be lonely?" She defines herself by her associations with other people; John - by some mysterious concoction whose ingredients Helen hasn't yet figured out, but which consists mainly of her name. Что имеетcz в виду под some mysterious concoction whose ingredients Helen hasn't yet figured out, but which consists mainly of her name? Я что-то не вникаю. |

Если поможет:( Из чего складывался образ Хелен для Джона оставалось для нее загадкой, таинственный коктейль, главным ингредиентом которого было ее имя (т.е. в первую очередь ее образ, имидж, характер ассоциировался у него с ее именем, но как красиво передать, не уверена…) |
